@Justin Foster ,

Also, partnering with another investor who can sign on the loan may help. Local banks that don't sell to secondary market and keep loans in house may be able to work with you as well. Good Luck

@Will Barnard,

That post was spot on! Awesome thread to show how great the content is here on BP. Thanks!

"and they would not know how to pick up the fork and knife to eat it!"

@Account Closed, I second what others have said. Get the lingo of the business down and keep building rapport with people you feel are serious investors.

Best of Luck

Lauren,

I was an Econ nerd in college. Most students don't like the subject or struggle in the classes. Keep with Econ if it is something that makes you excited to learn!

Learning about markets, knowing how/why certain things happen in our economy can be applied back to RE.

Best of luck!

Jon Holdman John P. Jon makes a good point, I was thinking in the mindset of a four or less unit property. My bad.
Building rapport in the beginning with any person in the equation of a deal are what matter, my point I guess.
